Orchestra

Orchestra

The Stanfield orchestra is designed for all children from Year 2 - Year 6 who learn to play an instrument either in school or at home and have mastered basic skills in notation and rhythm.

We specially arrange all the orchestra music so that each individual feels comfortable with what they are expected to play so that the children can then enjoy being part of a large ensemble. Orchestra practices are held once a week after school.

We play as a full orchestra - violins, cellos, flutes, clarinets, saxophones and percussion - for part of each term and divide into string orchestra and windband at other times to give the children as wide an experience of ensemble playing as possible.
